Investigators believe the human hair found in the boat is from Laci Peterson- who disappeared last December 24th.

Experts say the type of DNA taken can not specifically identify an individual. It's not as reliable as the more typically used nuclear DNA.
But a judge says prosecutors can tell a jury it's likely the DNA from that strand of hair is found in one out of every 112 white people.

A diagnosis of skin cancer may be even worse than previously thought.
A study suggests women with a common, non fatal form of skin cancer may face double the risk of developing other cancers.
It's triple the risk for developing lung cancer and five times as high for liver cancer.
The new study involved 93 thousand post menopausal women
Scientists say while most patients with skin cancers won't develop other cancer, the results do imply they should be vigilant about getting routine screening tests for other cancers.
